Actual TIPS for those not deterred by this video and others that show the negatives: 1. Invest in a life straw bottle! 2. Do not be afraid to PACK. This is NOT the destination for “light packing” anything you find comfort in at home BRING IT!!! 3. BRING SNACKS FROM HOME!! Cubans don’t eat spicy food like that so if you like hot sauce BRING IT! 4. Bring toilet paper/wipes as the public restrooms usually don’t have toilet paper. 5. Ladies, bring sanitary napkins because you will NOT find them here. 6. If you can try to bring things for the people as it’s very bare minimum down there. 7. Learn a few Spanish phrases so that you can bargain better. 8. NEVER pay the price they quote you as it’s always double. Pretend you only have half. Works especially well if you are a pretty woman. Bonus do NOT skimp on going to the beach! It’s worth the trip. Also don’t pay $30 to get in the taxi to the beach, if you stay in the downtown area the nice coach bus (reserved for tourist) will take you there for $5 round trip!

Been going to Cuba for decades and it is really looking tired ! I feel very bad for the locals , because the Cuban people are very nice people 🇨🇦🇨🇦‼️‼️❤️❤️🇨🇺🇨🇺

Definitely agree with not eating street food. You just don’t know how sanitary the vendor conditions are or where the ingredients are from. Also, if you buy bottled water from a street vendor, make sure that the top is factory sealed. I’ve seen refilled bottles before.

Enjoyed the video💕

Even in luxury restaurants you can get sick (gastero enteritis), as happened to me several times. food is expensive and terrible, worse than in the so-called period especial of the 90s. I would advise against visiting Cuba as a holiday destination as it is a bankrupt prison island under a terrible dictatorship.

the corrupt dictatorship of the Castro's ruined the island for around 70 years and the army is in power everywhere (Gaesa) like hotels, banking, shops, traffic...there are thousands of political prisoners and a majority left the island. electricity is a drama (apagones) and there are no medicines available because the so called government lacks valuta.

Spent 3 weeks here in January / February. Spent lot of time around San Rafael, Centro Habana, Galiano Street, Obispo, and hung around the boulevard at night, Many of the people approached me and asked for money, The scammers and Jinteras have lots of money. They had clean clothes, shoes, nice haircut, the jinteras had their nails done, nice handbag, So... how are they buying this if they all "need money" ??

FACTS.

It can be seen that the foreign Castro spokesmen (normally it is only one with many accounts who writes in the Cuban videos) go to live in Cuba, they are only defenders of that tyranny but under remote control. This false solidarity is not with ordinary Cubans when they talk about Cuba, but with Castro's tyranny. They justify anything that happens in Cuba under that regime and always try to bring out their sick anti-Americanism by trying to divert attention to the alleged faults of the United States, trying to victimize Castro's tyranny to try to whitewash its guilt for having Cubans in misery and worse, without freedoms. This pro-Castro mercenarism that they actively practice is part of the deformations that many of them receive in the public schools where they are trained as agents of Castro's tyranny and the totalitarian socialist/communist ideology.

Continue with what has already been seen for Cuba in the reading that was said, nothing is going to come out, those who are going to come out are all these guys who have nothing

Las calles y ciudades de Cuba, así como todas las zonas del país, todavía lucen exactamente igual que hace 50 o 60 años: casas sucias y en mal estado. No es un país donde realmente te sentirías cómodo...
